A Big Trip!

January 3, 2017

My older brother has been working and living in Sicily for the last couple of years. A couple of weeks ago, my mom told me that she had a proposal. My mom and my sister usually go on walks in the morning and Jessica had mentioned to my mom about visiting our brother in Sicily. My mom is not fond of airplanes or any place she can’t take her dog.

So, her proposal was that I travel with Jessica and she would pay for our flights. I then proposed to Jessica that we try to sneak in a trip to Dublin, Ireland as well since neither of us have any idea when we might cross the big pond again.

We booked our flights today! We leave on June 3rd for Dublin, Ireland, where we will spend about four days, then we fly to Sicily for about 10 days!

On my to-do list now is to book our stays in Dublin. Our brother works with a travel agent in Sicily, so he will handle booking our stay there. We also need to get our passports in order since neither one of us have ever traveled out of the country.
